A huge thank you to everyone who turned out to help us yesterday on what turned out to be quite an eventful race. We couldn't have managed without you and there have been several messages of thanks from riders for a good, "enjoyable" race.

We have not had any news on the second hospital admittance of the race yet but the first chap who crashed before the race started is now home - he's had plastic surgery to fix his facial injuries his teeth have been put back but not clear if that will be enough to save them. He pulled his foot out the pedal whilst sprinting couldn't save it and landed on his face.
